Cavallotto, Barolo, Bricco Boschis San Giuseppe Riserva 2010

The 2010 Barolo Riserva Bricco Boschis Vigna San Giuseppe is just starting to show the first signs of aromatic development, which makes it a fine choice for drinking now or within the next few years. On the palate it is powerful and ample, with notable tannic heft and structure to burn. The expression of Nebbiolo is super-classic all the way. It’s one of my favorite wines of the evening. Superb.

Here is a beautiful wine for the ages. The 2010 Barolo Riserva Bricco Boschis Vigna San Giuseppe captures the timeless beauty and balance of the vintage with exuberance and authenticity. The wine makes a delicate but lasting impression on the senses with lingering tones of wild berry, licorice and white truffle. All the aromas are pegged to a concrete sense of place. There is a savory and warm side to the bouquet that builds in momentum. This is a very pretty wine that will embrace many long years of cellar aging.
